“There is never a time or place for true love. It happens accidentally, in a heartbeat, in a single flashing, throbbing moment.” ― Sarah Dessen, The Truth About Forever Joe and Julie met at trivia night the Kent in Towson in 2014. They soon became friends …and then something more! In April 2015, to the surprise of all their friends, they began dating. During their time dating, they found love, joy, peace and growth. They got into everything from Pokémon Go, to cooking exotic dishes. Julie shared with Joe her love of travel through trips to DC, Ocean City, Boston and Cancun. In 2020, Joe showed Julie the perks of being a homebody... but didn't we all? Then in 2021, it all came together. During their trip to Boston, Joe got down on one knee in the Harvard Arboretum, under a beautiful trellis and asked Julie to marry him... and as you can guess, she said YES!
